Set after episode 10 "Wilson". When Cuddy finds out Wilson had purchase her loft, she goes to confront House but finds out he had nothing to do with it do. She also realizes by being with Lucas, she had hurt House in so many ways she couldn't imagine.

Ugh sorry. Had a very stressful weekend but I'm all good now after seeing the Huddy promo more that 50 times today XD

"Where the hell have you been?" Wilson demand as soon as House walked in through the door.

"With Cuddy." House answered as he took off his jacket and then made his way over to the couch.

Wilson already had his mouth open but immediately closed it when he heard House's answer. Honestly, he was expecting him to be at some local bar or something.

"You could have called you know."

"Didn't cross my mind."

Wilson decided to just ignore him as he took a seat next to him. "I take it the talk went well." Wilson said, changing the subject.

"Yup." He replied.

"Well that's good."

"I kissed her."

"Wait, what?" Wilson asked, staring at him in disbelief.

"I kissed Cuddy." House said with a small satisfied smile on his face.

"Wow, that must have been one hell of a talk."

"Got that right."

"Care to share?"

The next morning, Cuddy was in her office doing the usual. Filling out paperwork, reviewing complaints against House...House. Just the thought of him made her smile. Yesterday he kissed her. His lips were so soft and warm on hers. She had to admit, that was probably the best kiss she had ever experienced in her life. After everything that had happened, she wondered where they stood. Were they finally ready to take that next step? But with everything that's going on, it made it bit difficult to tell. Of course she wanted a relationship with House, but right now she really wanted Lucas behind bars.

Knock Knock

"Come in." Cuddy said.

"Good morning, Dr. Cuddy. Hope you don't mind me stopping by so early." Officer Carter said as he shook her hand.

"No not at all. Please, have a seat."

"Well then, let's get today started." He said, as he sat down.

"Please tell you guys have found a way to put an end to this madness." Ever since this whole thing started, she hadn't had a decent night of sleep and she was pretty sure it was starting to show.

"Well, we are assuming the fact that he's a P.I., he's probably watching you guys." He said, stating the obvious.

"Which wouldn't be a shocker if he was." Cuddy replied.

"Right. Which is why I'm going to need you to tell me what you've been up to during the past week. We're approaching this in a different way." He said, making sure she understood him. "The guy is unpredictable. He's been quiet for a week now and that's weird. We figured if he's watching you, then maybe you might have done something that could possibly trigger him to react in a negative way." He explained.

That hit Cuddy hard. She been knew that there was a possibility he'd probably be watching her. But she wondered if Lucas had seen her and House kissing yesterday. "Okay." Cuddy agreed.

"Have you done anything that would cause him to react?" He asked.

"Um, well, Dr. House and I came to an understanding." She admitted, hoping that he knew what she was talking about. When he smiled at her, she knew that he knew exactly what she meant.

"Well that's interesting." He replied, still smiling. "That's defiantly something that would trigger the guy. But this can go two ways though. It's either he goes after Dr. House again or..."

"Me." She finished his sentence.

"And since we don't want neither to happen, we'll be keeping an eye on the both of you. So if he decides to make a move, we'll be right there to take him." He told her.

"We just want all of this to be over with it." Cuddy sighed.

"You have nothing to worry about. We got this under control and we're gonna put an end to it." He reassured her.

"I hope you guys do."

"Trust me, we do. And when all of this is over, you can finally sleep peacefully." He said with a smile.

"How did you-" Cuddy started to ask but stopped when he gave her a "It Doesn't Take A Genius" look.

"We'll keep you updated. Later on today me and my partner will come back here to explain to you exactly what we're going to do." He said as he stood up.

"Okay I'll be here."

"All right then, enjoy the rest of day."

"Same to you."

"Thanks, good bye." And with that, he turned and left.

It was around noon when Cuddy made her way down to the cafeteria. After Officer Carter left, she spent the whole morning running the hospital taking care of things her employees couldn't do. As she was paying for her lunch, she spotted Wilson and House at a table near by.

"Mind if I join?" She asked when she got to their table. Both men shot their heads up and stared at her. They were little surprise to find her standing there. House then moved over so she could sit next him.

"How are you?" Wilson asked.

"Am okay I guess. What about you?"

"I can't really complain." Wilson replied.

"And you?" She asked, turning her attention to House.

"Am fine." House answered. Cuddy simply nodded. For moment, they all just sat there in silence as they ate their lunch.

"Officer Carter came by today." Cuddy said, breaking the silence.

"What did he say?" Wilson asked.

"They think Lucas is watching us."

"Not a shocker." House said.

"True." Wilson added.

"So he asked me if I might have done anything that would set him off." Cuddy told them.

That got both Wilson and House's attention. House turned his head to face Cuddy but he just stared at her because he really didn't know what to say.

"You don't think he saw two, do you?" Wilson asked in a whisper.

"I don't know." Cuddy replied as she stared at her salad.

"It's possible though." House added.

"I know. That's why Officer Carter said they'll be keeping an eye on both of us."

"We'll keep an eye on you too. I really don't like the idea of you being alone." House told her.

"Yeah am with House on this one. We're here for you if you need us." Wilson said. All his anger towards her had completely fade away during the past few days. The only thing he cared about was the safety of his two friends.

Cuddy simply just smiled at them. At that moment, the only thing mattered to her was fact that all of them were on good terms with each other again.

Lucas had thought of many plans but in the end, none of them were good enough. So this is how it feels to be defeated, Lucas thought. At this point, there nothing he could do to get Lisa back. Everyone knew that he was responsible for the whole thing. It was just a matter time before the cops had figured it all out. He made huge mistake and that mistake was going after House in the first place. For some reason, he just felt threaten by him. He was afraid that Lisa would realize that it was House she was really in love with it. So he did all he could to get rid of him, but he end up getting rid of her instead. Things were just fine and he ruined it all. There was nothing he could do, he lost the war. But for some reason he felt the urge to see her one more time before of all of this ends.

Only a few more chapters left. Am trying to finish this story before school starts but I don't think that's going to be possible. Review plz :)
